Nacli is a Pokmon composed of rock salt. Its upper body is rugged and brown, with an off-white stripe circling it, while its lower body is a white salt cube with rectangular orange-yellow eyes. A white salt cube is embedded on the top half of its body as well.

Nacli are born deep within the earth, inside layers of rock salt. Bits of salt are scraped off of Nacli as it travels the ground, although Nacli is able to create and replenish salt inside its body as well. In the past, Nacli was treasured by people who would use its salt. Even today, Nacli salt is still used in foods such as ice cream, because it has a gentle flavor.

So this pokemon is literally made of rock salt that is highly valued. We know people eat Pokmon from Slowpoke tails being sold for consumption in GSC, and in fact Team Rocket set about destroying an ecosystem in order to meet demand. Because of that, I can imagine a terrible factory farming of Naclis.

Yes. There are no vegans in Pokmon.

Grind them to near death, throw them in a PC to let it regrow, repeat.

if anything it would be kept in egg-chicken cage sized enclosure with sandpaper conveyor/salt collector belt system.

Yeah, this is my thinking. It's just a waste to grind them up if they can replenish their salt naturally.

They'll eventually die.

Depends on if they have pain receptors and how deep you can sand before hitting them. Otherwise, it might be similar to a haircut or trimming nails.

Let's be real here guys, the salt that will sell for the most money to rich people as a delicacy will be the salt at the core of a Nacli

I only eat aged Naclstack salt.

nacli's cute. while naclstack and garganacl are cool, i'm a bit disappointed we didn't get a pink salt rock waifu

if pokemon tasted good i'd eat them too

you would be foolish to think other creatures wouldn't eat us if given the chance to, its a dog eat dog world
